1979 vintage. In magnum. At Hotel du Marc. Pale copper hue. On the nose, soy sauce, cranberry sauce, red currant, saline minerality. On the palate, medium plus acidity, medium minus body, medium concentration of flavour. Longish finish. Very good indeed. Drink now - in magnum, could age for another 5 years +. — 9 years ago

2014,,, Jolie-Laide, Fannucchi Road Vineyard, Sonoma County, Trousseau Gris. One of the most gorgeous wines ever (color). A rich, shimmering copper. This is aging well. Much better than the first bottle that I opened for Mother's Day last year. Bright, tart strawberry and a hint of tangerine. Just a great patio wine on a crisp Spring evening. One bottle left. When is the 2015 available? — 9 years ago

Copper colored, lush texture, sweet floral fruits. Not your average Pinot Grigio by a long shot. — 10 years ago

2002 vintage Rose. Light salmon, copper hue. Chalk, wet rock to the fore. Red currant and cranberry. Slight blossom notes. Iron fragments. On the palate, very lean and balanced as is the Crystal style. Not the concentration of the white 2002. If there's any tannins here, you have to focus to notice them. Maybe at the back end there's a touch of weight from the tannins. Very young - too young. Don't touch for 7-10 years. Makings of a great wine as acidity is so balanced with the fruit. Love it. NB: Pinot cold macerated for 4 days - to extract colour but little tannins. Then blended with Chardonnay and co-fermented. Quite unique. No added red wine per se. — 10 years ago

Moody copper gold in color. Wonderfully mature, botrytis infused, sugar-coated pecans, salty caramel, cookie dough, dried guava, cappuccino cream, cured ham. Did I say it's very complex!? Really love the balance and mixture of full-throttle sweetness and mouthwatering savoury, hearty elements. Beautiful wine to sip and contemplate on this perfect Indian-Summer-Sunday.... — 11 years ago
